Discover the whereabouts of the formidable Direhowl and learn how to capture, train, and utilize its unique abilities in the world of Palworld.

Uncovering Direhowl's Location

The enigmatic Direhowl, a Neutral-type Pal of fierce and intense demeanor, once roamed the world alongside humans, but the bond between them dissipated over time. Today, it is an angry and hostile creature, targeting anything that crosses its path with little regard. When encountered in packs, its ferocity makes for a challenging confrontation.

Despite its formidable nature, Direhowl can be found prowling in various areas on the map, particularly in the early stages of the game. Venturing past the Windswept Hills, players may spot packs of two Direhowls, while the Marsh Island and Verdant Brook waypoints are prime locations for their appearance. It's important to note that they don't always spawn, so players may need to move back and forth between waypoints to prompt their appearance.

Given their hostile nature, players should be well-prepared with a bow and ample arrows to keep the Direhowls at bay. Engaging in long-range combat is recommended, gradually depleting their health while closing the distance for capture. Additionally, Direhowls are known to spawn at nighttime alongside Dark Pals, presenting an opportunity for stealthy approaches and surprise captures.

Utilizing Direhowl's Abilities

Upon capturing a Direhowl, it can prove to be a valuable ally in the battlefield, offering the opportunity to obtain rubies and coins through successful hunts. These resources can then be utilized to procure items and other Pals, enhancing the player's arsenal and capabilities.

While Direhowl may not excel in work suitability at the base, its Partner Skill, Direhowl Rider, is a remarkable asset. Serving as a swift and reliable mount, Direhowl's speed surpasses that of other mounts, allowing players to traverse the map with exceptional agility. The acquisition of Direhowl's Saddle, unlocked at Player Level 9, further enhances its capabilities, albeit at a cost of one Technology Point.

Mastering Direhowl's Combat Prowess

In combat, Direhowl exhibits formidable strength and versatility, making it a desirable choice, particularly in the early stages of the game. Its ability to unleash powerful attacks with quick succession, alongside the flexibility of its moves, establishes it as a formidable force on the battlefield.

Direhowl's move pool includes a range of abilities, such as Fierce Fang, Sand Blast, Air Cannon, Power Shot, Ignis Blast, Power Bomb, and Pal Blast. Each move offers distinct advantages, with Pal Blast standing out as the most potent, albeit requiring a significant charging time.

Investing time in breeding a Direhowl with exceptional stats and utilizing the Statue of Power to further enhance its abilities can significantly elevate its combat prowess. While Neutral-type Pals lack inherent advantages, the utility of Direhowl's transportation and its ability to swiftly and powerfully engage in combat make it an advantageous option for early-game progression.
